Look, we all know the old cliché about men being from Mars and women being from Venus. I suspect the same logic applies to cinema. Which movies do you think are strictly for the guys?
For instance, Die Hard—is there actually any woman out there who genuinely enjoyed that one?
Or maybe Mad Max...
P.S.
This isn't meant to be a discussion about discrimination. 😬

I’ve always felt like men tend to watch more movies than women... I can't quite put my finger on why, it just seems to be the case...

As for those classic "guy movies"...

Das Boot
Crimson Tide
U-571
The Shawshank Redemption
Die Hard🙂 (at least in the first two, Willis's wife shows up
) Gladiator

Just your standard "men's movies"... 😉

P.S.
But women definitely have their own favorites too:

Aliens
Ultraviolet
Resident Evil
Underworld

I mean, honestly, the original Conan is basically the mother of all action movies.

Oh yeah, those are certainly the gold standard for what defines a real man's movie...

Unlike guys, who basically spend all their time daydreaming about epic heroes and massive victories, women tend to gravitate toward movies with "cute actors." For example:

Now, Speed should be this totally masculine action flick, right? A long time ago, this girl was trying to convince me we absolutely had to go see it in theaters—telling me how it’s such a blockbuster, how it’s literally the best movie ever made... So, fine, let's go watch Speed. Total garbage. Right outside the theater, I gave her this skeptical look and asked with a face full of pure judgment, "A great movie?" and she just gives me this wide-eyed look and goes, "Omigod, Keanu Reeves is sooo guuuuuddddd 😍"

Honestly, I don't think I'll ever get over that trauma... It’s pretty clear that the compass for movie taste is located somewhere in the testicles.

How would women even react if the argument was that a movie is amazing because 🙂 "Jenna Jameson has such hugeeeee booooobieseeee"
?

*Ong-bak* could certainly be classified as a "manly" action flick, much like *Born to Fight* from that same production crew.

I mean, you're probably a woman if you're asking something like that, I guess. 🙄

I mean, a guy in prison probably isn't exactly overflowing with romantic love, right? 😁
